What guests think

At Hilton Garden Inn Chicago Downtown/Magnificent Mile, travellers consistently praise the walkable, transit-connected location near the Magnificent Mile and Riverwalk, while feedback on rooms and services ranges from comfortable and clean to dated, noisy, or inconsistently maintained.

Many guests find staff friendly and helpful, though others report slow or unresponsive front desk service and confusion around deposits or early check-in fees. Housekeeping is typically every other day, with cleanliness praised by many but recurring complaints about missed servicing and occasional bathroom issues. Parking is convenient but very expensive at the attached garage; on-site dining via the Weber Grill earns positive notes, while breakfast is not included and can feel overpriced. Expect a centrally located, practical stay with trade-offs between convenience and occasional wear or noise.

Everything was very nice. However, parking was $64 US, which was just over $90 CAN for 1 day. Seems a little much.

Nice and Clean, close to a lot of restaurants, only problem is the parking this is highway robbery, $69 a night to come and go is ridiculous, although the parking garage is not owned by the hotel, its a very financial inconvenience..

Great location - close to Michigan Ave and shopping. While a bit of a hike - 3-4 miles we did walk back from a concert at Soldier Field. Easy parking garage attached to hotel. Parking is expensive $64 a day but parking is expensive everywhere in Chicago. Was a lil warm in room and thermostat regulated to 68 or higher. Overall a decent place to stay for price.

I have no complaints about this property regarding cleanliness, location, friendliness, etc. I liked the room and the staff were very nice and prompt!! The hotel is in a great location!!! The store area downstairs was very, very expensive though. $7 for a can of Sprite…sheesh!!! Other than the price of everything in the snack area, the hotel is a nice stay. Oh and parking…it was $128 for 2 days to park in the public parking garage connected to the hotel.

Standard hotel room, comfortable bed in a great location in downtown Chicago. Very close to Michigan Ave for shopping. Walkable to River North, the Loop, Gold Coast. Right when you exit the lobby and turn the corner, there is an accessible L stop on the Red Line. I also appreciated there was a water fountain station for you to refill water bottles in the lobby. Would stay here again

Beds were very comfortable. On the 20th floor we could still hear the sirens, but I think that’s more about the city and less about the hotel. Walking distance to a lot. Nice gym. Pool looked nice. Smelled nice. Fast elevators.

Beds-terrible. It has the squeakiest springs and the bed frame, please don’t get me started. It was a wooden frame all the way around. If I hit my shin or calf one more time I think I would have lost my mind. Everything else-great. Great location, great staff, clean. Has a pool which is a plus, but it’s very small. Get a couple adults and few kiddos and you can’t even move.

The stay was decent I just didn’t appreciate that there was mold around the tub. At the rate per night the room should have been checked thoroughly and the lighting in the room could have been better. I feel it wasn’t worth the price I paid but I tried my best to keep busy from being in the room. 3 nights $900 for mold in the bathroom is diabolical

There were boogers wiped on the bedside table and it hadn’t been cleaned. I only stayed one night and when I got in the shower for the first time, the entire shampoo bottle was already empty. It hadn’t even been filled up when they ‘cleaned’ the room. There were also hairs all in the shower so I know the shower wasn’t cleaned. You pay a lot of money to stay in Hilton hotels it’s frustrating when no one even bothers to clean the hotel room before you arrive.

Location , staff and cleanliness are great . Room spacious . The mini fridge was too loud and noise from outside was also loud even though our room is on floor 20. The mattress is comfortable but the bed has a big Wodden frame that makes pumping into its corner and hurting one's knees a big possibility . I had to remind myself to be careful , yet I pumped into it twice .

Celebrated our 10th anniversary in Chicago, and this hotel was the perfect fit for what we planned in the city. Excellent location, close to restaurants, shops (Magnificent Mile), Riverwalk, and tourist attractions. The staff were friendly and helpful; even before our arrival - Yama answered questions I had prior to arrival. We will definitely look into booking again with Hilton Garden Inn Chicago Downtown for our next visit to Chicago! Thank you!

Once I got up to the 16th floor I had to go back down to get my room number because the phone in the hallway to call to front desk, they were not answering it. Overall, the stay was okay... nothing to brag about.

Not only was the room clean and comfortable, but the hotel is located in an incredible spot; quick access to public transit, and plenty of restaurants and shopping to choose from. The customer service was good; nothing out of the ordinary and perfectly reasonable for a busy strip in the city. However, we had really great service from the bartenders in the hotel restaurant, who were prompt and super fun to chat with. Will be staying here again when I’m back in Chicago!

Very useful having a fridge and microwave for reheating those leftover steak and deep dish dinners! Also good size safe for storing a laptop. Only issue was with the breakfast - should check what the breakfast coupons are good for. There was a standard option with oatmeal, scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage and bread options. Then getting OJ or a waffle seemed to be an extra charge.
